CVE-2026-28789 (GCVE-0-2026-28789)

Title

OliveTin: Unauthenticated DoS via concurrent map writes in OAuth2 state handling

Summary

OliveTin gives access to predefined shell commands from a web interface. Prior to version 3000.10.3, an unauthenticated denial-of-service vulnerability exists in OliveTin’s OAuth2 login flow. Concurrent requests to /oauth/login can trigger unsynchronized access to a shared registeredStates map, causing a Go runtime panic (fatal error: concurrent map writes) and process termination. This allows remote attackers to crash the service when OAuth2 is enabled. This issue has been patched in version 3000.10.3.

Severity ?

7.5 (High)

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-03-02 21:41 – Updated: 2026-03-05 22:49

Summary

OliveTin has unauthenticated DoS via concurrent map writes in OAuth2 state handling

Details

Summary

An unauthenticated denial-of-service vulnerability exists in OliveTin’s OAuth2 login flow. Concurrent requests to /oauth/login can trigger unsynchronized access to a shared registeredStates map, causing a Go runtime panic (fatal error: concurrent map writes) and process termination. This allows remote attackers to crash the service when OAuth2 is enabled.

Details

The OAuth2 handler stores per-login state in a shared map without synchronization:

service/internal/auth/otoauth2/restapi_auth_oauth2.go:24 registeredStates map[string]*oauth2State
Unlocked write in login handler: .../restapi_auth_oauth2.go:141
Unlocked read in callback check: .../restapi_auth_oauth2.go:174
Unlocked writes in callback flow: .../restapi_auth_oauth2.go:284-285
Unlocked read in auth chain check: .../restapi_auth_oauth2.go:376

These paths are network reachable via publicly registered routes:

  - service/internal/httpservers/frontend.go:71 → /oauth/login
  - service/internal/httpservers/frontend.go:72 → /oauth/callback

Because Go HTTP handlers run concurrently, high parallel traffic to /oauth/login causes concurrent map access and runtime panic.

Tested on:

Container image: ghcr.io/olivetin/olivetin:3000.10.0
Source also contains same pattern at commit/tag eb42029b5d0c0633551621288180dd4566b913f7 (3000.10.1)

PoC

Start OliveTin with OAuth2 provider configured (example github), exposing port 1337.
Confirm baseline:

  curl -i http://127.0.0.1:1337/readyz
  curl -i "http://127.0.0.1:1337/oauth/login?provider=github"

Expected: 200 for /readyz, 302 for /oauth/login.

Run concurrency PoC:

  python3 /OliveTin/tools/poc_oauth2_state_map_race_dos.py \
    --base-url http://127.0.0.1:1337 \
    --provider github \
    --workers 80 \
    --requests 120000 \
    --health-failures 3

Verify crash:

docker inspect olivetin-dos --format 'status={{.State.Status}} exit={{.State.ExitCode}}' docker logs olivetin-dos 2>&1 | grep -E "fatal error: concurrent map|concurrent map writes|restapi_auth_oauth2.go"

Observed result:

Process exited with code 2
Logs include:
- fatal error: concurrent map writes
- .../internal/auth/otoauth2/restapi_auth_oauth2.go:141 in HandleOAuthLogin

Impact

Vulnerability type: Race condition (CWE-362) leading to DoS.
Attacker requirements: network access only; no authentication required for exploit path.
Impacted deployments: OliveTin instances with OAuth2 enabled and reachable over network.
Security impact: remote unauthenticated attacker can repeatedly crash OliveTin, causing availability loss until restart/recovery.
